Before yesterday, I search mirors for install softwares after installation, ex. desktops, Firefox, etc.
It's a problem because the ISO images are small, about 250MB, and contain only package for primary installation of NetBSD. No ISO with "pkg".
I think that the team is too busy to update mirors. Several have empty folders.
Have you experienced the same thing?
Thanks,

If you want to install a lot of binary packages with pkg_add, you can edit root's .cshrc file and un-comment the line that sets the PKG_PATH. (that's the url that IdOp provided above that pkg_add uses to download the package(s).)
It's located about half-way down in the file. There's a comment above it talking about downloading binaries with pkg_add.

Otherwise, for package base gnome has name change. Is "gnome-build-2.24.1.tgz" the base package for NetBSD 4.0 and next?
I thank you again for links and remarks, also for :

Thank Tom.
I see also the similarity between NetBSD and OpenBSD.
I think that OpenBSD have better means for work.
I know also problem to install the OS and the packages with one of my two optical drive : some tests as cd0a and cd1a have completely lock the system. I must use the sweet method of poweroff computer.
Goodbye,

Thanks for all, particurlarly Bobarino, because I've forgot thank you in my previous posts.
Now, I ask to you an important question : actually, the release better updated is 4.0X.
Details :
-ISO : 4.0 and 4.01
-packages : only 4.0
Do I must choice the same version for install (ISO) and packages?
Is it critical to install with ISO 4.01 and pkg_add with 4.0?
I think that 4.01 coutains only security issues.
(Perhaps, the version 4.01 will be near available.)
Good bye,

Thanks.
That I've ask is link for pkg_add, not pkg_src.
I'm beginner and I think that pkg_src is the tool for installation by source code, that means compilation (make, make intall).
Is this true?
Is the link given by IdOp OK to install binaries packages?
Thanks for advance.
Good evening

PS : I've problem for install 4.0 : for create complete disklabel, no other primaries partitions is needed. This is done. Next, problems with sysint for optical dives and checking (fsck_...) NetBSD slice (dev/rwd1a). This evening, I'v'e will "re'begin" with the deleting of the slice (not difficult), but for the optical drive, this is other thing!
Good bye,
